I don't think you know what we were even talking about. Are you trying to tell me there were clock issues in all those games.


Those were games with serious coaching scheme and strategy issues as well as personnel. Clock management is not Les' only weakness.

Again, he's a great coach, but there has not been one season he's been at LSU where his coaching has cost LSU a game in some way.

That said, again he's a great coach, but acting like he's only made 2 mistakes in 11 years is just pathetic attempts at dick riding.

Whatever you want to say, dude. The guy has coached 150 games here and you're choosing to look at a handful of questionable calls. Frankly, it'd be astounding if he didn't have a few of those in that amount of time.

He's also got numerous dominating wins, countless convincing wins, and though I'm sure it's no longer accurate after this past season, he was the only coach in America to have a WINNING record when trailing in the 4th quarter not that long ago.

He will go down as the greatest coach in LSU history. I'm just assuming he had a little success here.

That is kinda already been out from the media. They are speculating that Miles gave him the nudge to start looking. Whatever happened I am just glad it did happen!!!

Oh, we will continue to have to deal with it until Less is shown the door. Book your tickets to Atlanta early this year. The Chicken Biskit Bowl gives a huge price break if you buy a year in advance.

Go read the Narcisse thread on RB. We are fixing to overhaul the Offense.

Jump on the pain train now

Wait, you list Miles as being outcoached against Bama in 2008 and 2012??

Bama was a heavy favorite in both of those games and the game planning by Miles and staff had us in position to shock the world in both of those games down to the very last whistle.

Some of yall

It's good not having a bunch of juniors leaving, not that I fault them for pursuing their dream. But experience mean a lot when aiming for a championship.

I want to see what he can do from the field. Granted it was Texas Tech, our offense didn't seem to have the same presnap issues that we've always had.


Yes. They cut the "Hat" out the middle.

Actually far from retarted. Why do you think Les always put his OC in the booth? Maybe because he wanted final say on all plays. Maybe because if he didn't like it, he had ability to change it before it was given to quarterback? Why do you think he's always had issues with clock management. I'm not trying to be a negatiger or whatever you want to call me, I've just seen this too many times from him over and over.


This is EXACTLY whats been going on and pretty much always has. Less Smiles also has final editing rights on the playbook before he hands it to Cam the night before the game.

A lot of OCs prefer the booth because it's easier to read the defenses.


WTF? Tell me again, what has Scam Scameron done with all this wisdom he gleaned from heaven? Thats what I thought.

Scam Scameron was sent to the clouds by Less Smiles because coach Smiles is a control freak and doesnt want interference with his sideline control. Notice he rarely consults with other coaches(except for ST) on the sidelines during the game.
